5 SECTION 200 PRELIMINARY DESIGN July 2014 SECTION PRELIMINARY DESIGN 201 STRUCTURE TYPE STUDY GENERAL In conformance with Section 1400 of the ODOT Location and Design Manual, Volume Three, a Structure Type Study shall be included in the Preferred Alternative Verification Review Submission for a Major Project or in the Minor Project Preliminary Engineering Study Review Submission. The Structure Type Study is not required for projects classified as Minimal. The project site should be studied in detail and evaluated to determine the best structure alternative. A site visit should be made. In many cases, it can be readily determined whether a particular bridge or culvert should be chosen for a particular site. If a bridge is the most appropriate structure for a particular site, then the Structure Type Study needs to be performed to determine the appropriate bridge type STRUCTURE TYPE STUDY SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS A Structure Type Study submission should include the following: A. Profile for each bridge alternative... Section B. Preliminary Structure Site Plan (for preferred bridge alternative)... Section C. Hydrology & Hydraulics (H&H) Report... Section D. Narrative of Bridge Alternatives... Section E. Cost Analysis... Section F. Foundation Recommendation... Section G. Preliminary Maintenance of Traffic Plan... Section The Structure Type Study shall be included in the review submission made directly to the District Office. A concurrent review submission shall be made to the Office of Structural Engineering if the proposed structure type contains non-standard bridge railing types, non-redundant designs, or fracture critical designs. The Office of Structural Engineering will forward review comments for these items to the responsible District Office. Additional structural related items that are required at this stage of the review process include: A. Retaining Wall Justification (L&D Section ) B. Noise Wall Justification (ODOT Policy # and Procedure # ) C. Pedestrian Overpass Justification (L&D Section ) 2-1

6 SECTION 200 PRELIMINARY DESIGN July PROFILE FOR EACH BRIDGE ALTERNATIVE The profile for each bridge alternative considered shall generally be drawn to a scale of 1 =20 and shall generally be taken along the proposed centerline of survey for the full length of the bridge. The profiles shall include: the existing and proposed profile grade lines; existing ground line; the crosssection of channel; an outline of the structure; highest known high water mark; normal water elevation; Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM); flow line elevation (thalweg); design and 100 year water surface elevations (WSE); overtopping flood elevation and frequency; existing and proposed profile grade elevations at 25 ft increments; and minimum and required vertical and horizontal clearances. Note: normal water elevation is the water elevation in the stream which has not been affected by a recent heavy rain runoff and could be found in the stream most of the year. Refer to BDM Section for OHWM definition. Carry WSE in a FEMA Zone out to two decimal places PRELIMINARY STRUCTURE SITE PLAN The Site Plan scale generally should be 1 = 20 [1 to 200]. For some cases to get the entire bridge on one sheet a smaller scale may be provided, if all details can be clearly shown. For bridges where the 1 = 20 [1 to 200] scale is too small to clearly show the Site Plan details, a 1 = 10 [1 to 100] scale may be considered. The following general information should be shown on the Preliminary Structure Site Plan: A. The plan view should show the existing structures (use dashed lines); contours at 2 foot [0.5 meter] intervals showing the existing surface of the ground (for steep slopes contours at 5 foot [2.0 meter] or greater intervals may be used); existing utility lines and their disposition; proposed structure; proposed temporary bridge; proposed channel improvements; a north arrow; and other pertinent features concerning the existing topography and proposed work in an assembled form. In case of a highway grade separation or a highway-railway grade separation, the required minimum and actual minimum horizontal and vertical clearances and their locations shall be shown in the plan and profile views. For a bridge over a railway, the vertical clearance shall be measured from a point level with the top of the highest rail and 6 feet [2 meters] from the centerline of those tracks, or greater if specified by the individual railroad. Reference shall be made to Chapter 15, Section 1.2.6(a), AREMA Specifications for increased lateral clearances required when tracks are on a horizontal curve. B. A profile as described in Section The profile scale shall be the same as the plan view. C. Horizontal and vertical curve data. D. Size of drainage area. The elevation, discharge and stream velocity through the structure and the backwater elevation for the 100-year frequency base flood, the design year flood and if necessary the overtopping flood. Label discharge as FIS when taken from a FEMA Flood Insurance Study. The clearance from the lowest elevation of the bottom of the superstructure to the design year water surface elevation (freeboard) should be provided. 2-2

7 SECTION 200 PRELIMINARY DESIGN July BRIDGE AND WATERWAY PERMITS Impacts to bridges or waterways may require legal authorization in the form of permits or certifications issued by various regulatory agencies, including: A. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers... Section 404 and/or Section 10 Permit B. U.S. Coast Guard... Section 9 Bridge Permit C. Ohio EPA... Section 401 Water Quality Certification and/or Isolated Wetland Permit The jurisdictional limit of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is termed the Waters of the United States and, as noted in ODOT CMS , includes: rivers, streams, lakes and wetlands. For rivers and streams, the jurisdiction begins below the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM). The OHWM is defined by the USACE Regulatory Letter No which is available at:

8 SECTION 200 PRELIMINARY DESIGN January 2015 The ODOT Office of Environmental Services Waterway Permits Unit (OES-WPU) assumes the responsibility for determining project eligibility for different types of waterway permits, such as, but not limited to, Nationwide Permits (NWP) or ODOT s Regional General Permit (RGP). The designer and project manager shall coordinate with the DEC and the OES-WPU throughout the permit determination process to ensure that the final waterway permit applications are indicative of the final project design. For more information refer to the Waterway Permits Manual available from the ODOT Office of Environmental Services. Special Provisions are the method ODOT uses to attach the waterway permits and certifications to the project construction plans. The waterway permits Special Provisions Package (SPP) is prepared by the Office of Environmental Services Waterway Permits Unit and may contain the following: A. All pertinent waterway permits, certifications and related conditions B. Drawings and/or mapping submitted with a permit application C. Specialized conditions associated with the waterway permits The designer and the project manager shall confirm that the bridge design plans meet the requirements in the project waterway SPP (e.g. Sections 404 and 401 conditions, and infrequently Sections 9 and 10) and shall ensure the project waterway SPP is submitted with the Final Plan Package TEMPORARY ACCESS FILLS A Temporary Access Fill (TAF) is a fill or structure that allows a contractor access to work on roads or bridges located within bodies of water. TAF s are work-type specific and are not required on every project. Examples of TAF s include: cofferdams; temporary structures for maintaining traffic; causeways and workpads; and demolition debris. The placement of all TAF s in Waters of the United States must be performed in accordance with the special provisions for waterway permits. A contractor s means and methods of construction will dictate the TAF required for a project. However, the Department must estimate the potential impacts to Waters of the United States during project development to ensure all permits are in-place during contract letting. Furthermore, it is incumbent upon the Department that these permits provide all bidding contractors the ability to construct the project without resulting in expensive delays, change orders or fines. To that end, the Department partnered with the Ohio Contractor s Association to develop the following guidance to estimate the size of TAF s: A. The TAF shall provide access to all piers located within the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM) of the waterway from at least one bank of the waterway. Access may be provided by construction staging of the TAF. When considering the constructability of staged TAF s, typical superstructure erection plans for lifting lengths of 50-ft or more require two cranes. Unless the access for member delivery is from an adjacent structure, the TAF must provide access to each end of the lift from one bank. In the case of staging, the permit application shall reflect the construction stage that impacts the largest area of the

9 SECTION 300 DETAIL DESIGN July 2015 wearing surface shall be composed as follows: 1. Two separate 1½ inch [38 mm] minimum lifts of Item 441 Asphalt Concrete Surface Course, Type 1, PG70-22M. The first lift shall be variable thickness to accommodate beam camber. The second lift shall be a uniform 1½ inch [38 mm] thickness. 2. Two applications of Item 407 Tack Coat - one prior to placement of the first lift of surface course and one prior to placement of the second lift of surface course. Refer to the ODOT Pavement Design Manual, Section 400 for application rates. C. 6 inches [155 mm] cast-in-place composite deck - defined as the minimum thickness of concrete slab for composite prestressed box beams. The top 1 inch [25 mm] shall be considered monolithic as defined above. Also see Section FUTURE WEARING SURFACE All bridges shall be designed for a future wearing surface (FWS) of 60 psf [2.87 kpa]. The future wearing surface is considered non-structural and shall not be used in design to increase the strength of the superstructure. The presence of a future wearing surface does not exclude the use of the 1 inch [25 mm] monolithic wearing surface as defined above CONCRETE DECK PROTECTION TYPES A. Epoxy Coated Reinforcing Steel - CMS B. Minimum concrete cover of 2½ inches [65 mm] C. Class QC2 Concrete D. Drip Strips E. CMS 512, Type 3 Waterproofing F. Asphaltic concrete wearing surface 3-11

10 SECTION 300 DETAIL DESIGN October WHEN TO USE All reinforcing steel shall be epoxy coated

11 SECTION 300 DETAIL DESIGN October 2007 (THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK)

12 SECTION 300 DETAIL DESIGN July 2015 All cast-in-place concrete decks shall have minimum concrete top cover of 2½ inches [65 mm]. A drip strip may be used on decks with over the side drainage. Non-composite box beam bridges, with over the side drainage, shall have an asphalt concrete overlay. The overlay shall be placed over Type 3 Waterproofing, CMS 512. Minimum thickness of overlay is 3 inches [75 mm] - See Section SEALING OF CONCRETE SURFACES SUPERSTRUCTURE Specifications for sealing material are defined in CMS 512. Concrete surfaces shall be sealed with an approved concrete sealer as follows: (See Figures 310 & 311) A. Concrete slabs or concrete decks on steel superstructures with over-the-side drainage: The deck fascia and a 6 inch [150 mm] (minimum) width under the deck shall be sealed with either an epoxy-urethane or non-epoxy sealer. B. Concrete slabs, composite prestressed box beam superstructures or concrete decks on steel superstructures with sidewalks: The vertical face of curb; the top of the curb/sidewalk; the inside face, top and outside face of the parapet; the deck fascia; and a 6 inch [150 mm] (minimum) width under the deck shall be sealed with either an epoxy -urethane or non-epoxy sealer. C. Concrete slabs, composite prestressed box beam superstructures or concrete decks on steel superstructures with deflector parapets: The inside face, top and outside face of parapet; the deck fascia; and a 6 inch [150 mm] (minimum) width under the deck shall be sealed with either an epoxy-urethane, or non-epoxy sealer. D. Non-composite prestressed concrete box beam decks with over-the-side drainage: The fascia of the outside beams and a minimum 6 inch [150 mm] width under the beam shall be sealed with an epoxy-urethane or a non-epoxy sealer. E. Concrete decks on prestressed I-beam superstructures with over-the-side drainage: The deck fascia; the underside of the deck to the edge of the top flange; the exterior fascia of the beam; the underside of the bottom flange; and the inside face of the bottom flange shall 3-12

13 SECTION 300 DETAIL DESIGN July 2015 When designing the deck reinforcement for a multiple span structure, unless a more precise method of analysis is performed, the composite structure shall be conservatively modeled as a continuous beam on a single support centered on the pier. Composite box beam structures with concrete parapets or sidewalks should not incorporate fit-up tolerances in the finished roadway width. To compensate for fit-up tolerances the composite deck and barrier and/or sidewalk should be designed to cantilever or overhang the boxbeam units by 2" [50 mm] to 8" [200 mm] each side with the fit-up being absorbed in the overhang. A mixture of 48" [1220 mm] and 36" [915 mm] boxbeam units may be necessary to meet this requirement. See Figure 320 for a sketch of the cross-section of the composite deck superstructure NON-COMPOSITE WEARING SURFACE Non-composite box beam bridges with asphalt overlays shall have Type 3 Waterproofing as specified in CMS 512 placed on the boxes before the 1½ inch minimum layers of CMS type 441 asphaltic concrete is applied. See section The Type 3 Waterproofing is preferred. Non-composite box beam bridges with asphalt overlays shall be limited to a 4 percent combined grade. Combined grades greater than 4 percent require a composite deck design. Combined grade includes both the longitudinal and transverse structure grades calculated as follows: Combined Grade (Cg) = ([deck slope] 2 + [transverse grade] 2 ) ½ CAMBER The topping thickness on prestressed box beam superstructures will vary along the length of the beams to account for beam camber and other vertical elevation adjustments. Proper determination of the topping thickness is crucial in order to properly establish beam seat elevations. As shown in Figure 320A, the topping thickness (Tx) at any point, x, along the length of a prestressed box beam superstructure shall be determined as: Tx = A + Bx + C + Dt,x - E Where: A = Design deck thickness Bx = Vertical grade adjustment C = Sacrificial haunch depth Dt,x = Beam camber adjustment at member age equal to Day t 3-41

14 SECTION 300 DETAIL DESIGN January 2014 E = Haunch adjustment a DESIGN DECK THICKNESS (A) The design deck thickness shall be in accordance with BDM Section or BDM Section b VERTICAL GRADE ADJUSTMENT (B x ) The Vertical Grade Adjustment accounts for any elevation differences between a non-linear profile grade and the linear grade connecting the centerline of beam supports. The value of the Vertical Grade Adjustment depends on many geometric factors such as vertical curvature, skew, cross-slope transitions, etc. Designers should attempt to minimize the vertical grade adjustment along the length of the bridge by setting the linear grade between the beam ends parallel to the tangent of the vertical grade at the midpoint of the beam span (see Figure 320A) c SACRIFICIAL HAUNCH DEPTH (C) The purpose of the Sacrificial Haunch Depth is to account for camber in excess of that calculated in the Beam Camber Adjustment above and account for the roadway cross-slope. For multiple span box beam bridges with design speeds exceeding 45 mph, the minimum thickness of the Sacrificial Haunch Depth (C) shall be 2-inches. For all other box beam bridges, the minimum thickness of Sacrificial Haunch Depth (C) shall be 0-in. Because box beams are set on sloping seats that approximate the cross-slope, the sacrificial haunch depth is typically constant. If, however, the cross slopes are different at the beam bearings as noted in BDM Section , the difference between the cross slope and the beam seat slope will be accommodated by the sacrificial haunch depth. The minimum thickness, C, will occur at the outside edge of the fascia beam on the low side of the cross slope d BEAM CAMBER ADJUSTMENT (D t,x ) As prestressed concrete beams age, beam camber will increase due to concrete creep under the constant loading from the prestressing force. Although designers cannot accurately predict the girder age when the deck is placed, general assumptions can be made to prevent camber growth from becoming an issue during construction. The design plans shall show two values for camber at midspan which the contractor can use to establish seat elevations according to C&MS and tolerance according to C&MS : camber at Day 0 (D0) and camber at Day 30 (D30). These values shall represent the midspan camber in the beams before application of dead load other than self-weight. To determine these camber values, Designers shall calculate the creep coefficient, ψ(t,ti), according to LRFD with humidity (H) equal to 70%; age of concrete at release (ti) equal to 0.75 days; and V/S and f ci according to the project requirements. To calculate the creep coefficient at Day 0 and Day 30, use a maturity of concrete (t) equal to 0 days and 30 days 3-42

17 SECTION 700 TYPICAL DETAIL NOTES July 2015 [71] INTERMEDIATE DIAPHRAGMS: Do not place the deck concrete until all intermediate diaphragms have been properly installed. If concrete diaphragms are used, complete the installation of the intermediate diaphragms at least 48 hours before deck placement begins. Concrete shall conform to C&MS 511 with a design strength of 4.5 ksi SEMI-INTEGRAL OR INTEGRAL ABUTMENT CONCRETE PLACEMENT FOR DIAPHRAGMS Hardened concrete end diaphragms restrain the movement and rotation of beam/girder ends that occur during deck placement. This restraint will increase stress in both the beam/girder and diaphragm. Factors that can contribute to detrimental stress increases include large structure skew and phased construction. When these factors exist, hardened diaphragms should be avoided during the deck placement. The following table provides guidelines for concrete diaphragm placement options. Description of Superstructure No phased construction, and Steel superstructures with skew < 30º, or I-beam superstructure with skew < 10º No phased construction, and Steel superstructures with skew 30º, or I-beam superstructure with skew 10º Phased construction with closure pour, and Steel superstructures with skew < 30º, or I-beam superstructure with skew < 10º Phased construction with closure pour, and Steel superstructures with skew 30º, or I-beam superstructure with skew 10º Phased construction without closure pour, and Steel superstructures with skew < 30º, or I-beam superstructure with skew < 10º Phased construction without closure pour, and Steel superstructures with skew 30º, or I-beam superstructure with skew 10º Note [71a] [71b] [71c] [71d] [71e] [71f] Designers should consider the absence of restraint at the diaphragm location and when calculating the unbraced length of beam/girder flanges. If necessary, temporary bracing details should be included in the plans. Temporary end bracing should be oriented perpendicular to beam/girder webs. 7-5

18 SECTION 700 TYPICAL DETAIL NOTES July 2015 Use the following notes as prescribed in the table above: [71a] ABUTMENT DIAPHRAGM CONCRETE: Place the diaphragm concrete encasing the structural member ends with the deck concrete or at least 48 hours before placement of the deck concrete. If placed separately, locate a horizontal construction joint in the diaphragm as shown on PSID-1-13, sheet 7 of 10 and place remaining diaphragm concrete with the deck. [71b] ABUTMENT DIAPHRAGM CONCRETE: Place the diaphragm concrete encasing the structural member ends after the deck placement in the adjacent span is complete. Procedures that place the abutment diaphragm with the deck concrete may be approved by the Engineer if the placement submittal can assure that the deck concrete in the adjacent span will be placed before concrete in the diaphragm has reached its initial set. NOTE TO DESIGNER: (Applies only to [71b]) Locate the deck construction joint parallel to the centerline of the abutment offset 1-ft from the face of the diaphragm toward the span. [71c] ABUTMENT DIAPHRAGM CONCRETE, PHASED CONSTRUCTION: Place the diaphragm concrete encasing the structural member ends of an individual phase with the deck concrete or at least 48 hours before placement of the deck concrete. If placed separately, locate a horizontal construction joint in the diaphragm as shown on PSID-1-13, sheet 7 of 10 and place remaining diaphragm concrete with the deck. Place closure pour concrete in the diaphragm and deck concurrently. NOTE TO DESIGNER: (Applies only to [71c]) If a closure pour is required in the deck per BDM Section , provide a closure pour in the diaphragm as well. Locate the closure pour in the diaphragm, as near as practical, to mid-bay and orient the vertical construction joints parallel to the centerline of the adjacent beam/girders. Provide 3-in chamfers at the acute corners. [71d] ABUTMENT DIAPHRAGM CONCRETE, PHASED CONSTRUCTION: Place the diaphragm concrete encasing the structural member ends of an individual phase after the deck placement in the adjacent span is complete. Procedures that place the abutment diaphragm with the deck concrete may be approved by the Engineer if the placement submittal can assure that the deck concrete in the adjacent span will be placed before concrete in the diaphragm has reached its initial set. Place closure pour concrete in the diaphragm and deck concurrently. NOTE TO DESIGNER: (Applies only to [71d]) If a closure pour is required in the deck per BDM Section , provide a closure pour in the diaphragm as well. Locate the closure pour in the diaphragm, as near as practical, to mid-bay and orient the vertical construction joints parallel to the centerline of the adjacent beam/girders. Locate the deck construction joint parallel to the centerline of the abutment offset 1-ft from the face of the diaphragm toward the span. Provide 3-in chamfers at the acute corners. 7-6

19 SECTION 700 TYPICAL DETAIL NOTES July 2015 [71e] ABUTMENT DIAPHRAGM CONCRETE, PHASED CONSTRUCTION: Place the diaphragm concrete encasing the structural member ends of an individual phase with the deck concrete. NOTE TO DESIGNER: (Applies only to [71e]) Do not use this note where a deck closure pour is required per BDM Section [71f] ABUTMENT DIAPHRAGM CONCRETE, PHASED CONSTRUCTION: Place the diaphragm concrete encasing the structural member ends of an individual phase after the deck placement in the adjacent span is complete. Procedures that place the abutment diaphragm with the deck concrete may be approved by the Engineer if the placement submittal can assure that the deck concrete in the adjacent span will be placed before concrete in the diaphragm has reached its initial set. NOTE TO DESIGNER: (Applies only to [71f]) Do not use this note where a deck closure pour is required per BDM Section Locate the deck construction joint parallel to the centerline of the abutment offset 1-ft from the face of the diaphragm toward the span CONCRETE DECK SLAB DEPTH AND PAY QUANTITIES For all steel beam and girder bridges with a concrete deck, provide the following note that describes how the quantity of deck concrete was calculated. [72] DECK SLAB CONCRETE QUANTITY: The estimated quantity of deck slab concrete is based on the constant deck slab thickness, as shown, plus the quantity of concrete that forms each beam/girder haunch. The estimate assumes a constant haunch thickness of inches [mm] and a constant haunch width outside the edge of each beam/girder flange of 9 inches [230 mm]. Deviate from this haunch thickness as necessary to place the deck surface at the finished grade. The allowable tolerance for the haunch width outside the edge of each beam/girder flange is ± 3 inches [75 mm]. The haunch thickness was measured at the centerline of the beam/girder, from the surface of the deck to the bottom of the top flange minus the deck slab thickness. The area of all embedded steel plates has been deducted from the haunch quantity in accordance with NOTE TO DESIGNER: The note above applies to new structures with beams/girders placed parallel to the profile grade line. A constant depth haunch may not be practical for existing structures or new structures whose beams/girders are not placed parallel to the profile grade line. In these special cases, the note shall be modified to fit the exact conditions. [73] Note retired see appendix 7-6.1
